[Somarium, have a panicked broadcast from one of those still severely ill and only getting worse, since he wasn't doing a great job of taking care of himself, so concerned with his roommate. He's clearly flushed, there are dark circles under his eyes and he's sweating and out of breath when the video feed flicks on. One of his lenses also appears to be cracked, but he's paying it no mind. He looks like he's in a darkened room as well, hunched close to the Dreamberry, speaking in hurried hush tones.]

S-Someone has to come help me... There is a man here, I don't know when he arrived, but he tries to kill me in my world and I can't get away from him. He's in my apartment and he's going to kill me!

T-They both want me dead, I know it. Y-Yamamoto-kun? Cavallone-san? Even Hibari-san or Gokudera-kun, one... one of you could stop him right?.. They are here.

You wouldn't let me die here like this, right?

[He suddenly jerks away from the feed, staring at something in terror and the line goes dead with no other warning.]

(( OOC: Shouichi is convinced Byakuran is various members of the Real Six Funeral Wreathes, particularly Kikyo right now. And he can't find Byakuran anywhere, believing him to have told them to kill him himself because of it. ))

Are you okay? It's just me.

[He crouched down with a wince, chin in hand as he frowned down at the redhead.] You need to be more careful.

Y-Yamamoto-kun...! [Relief floods his features which just reveals just how truly exhausted he looks.]

I am hiding, but... they'll find me eventually. I have to get out of here.

... [Hesitates, he doesn't know this guy very well after all, how does he know they aren't working together somehow? But slowly he answers in very hushed tones.] In my apartment...

Somni? [He's on his way now.]

Did... Did Kikyo tell you call me? I don't.... I don't know you. What do you care anyway?!

You're trying to help him ferret me out!

Or maybe you're the one who took Byakuran-san away. [And despite his obviously not well state, his eyes narrow behind those glasses at that thought.] What did you do with him?

(( fjdosifjpsf I'm sorry he's freaking out all over the place, but nature of the beast and all with the event, but having so much fun! Hopefully these two can try talking again when Shouichi is you know... like sane. XD ))

My apartment in Somni. Byakuran-san is missing and one of his real Funeral Wreathes is here.

I... I think I heard all of them though. [His gaze darts about from side to side, not focusing on the screen.] I'm outnumbered too...

[The redhead nods in uncertainty, so obviously feverish and unwell.]

.... you won't let them kill me?

S-Stop calling me that, it's creepy.

Only Byakuran-san can call me that.

[Apparently he was backing to seeing whatever his mind was fearing most, unable to see the man before him, but rather one he'd only ever seen in Byakuran's dreams. His throat tightened and heart raced as he skittered back away from the other man uneasily.

Even if he said he wouldn't hurt him because he was told not to... Shouichi couldn't fully quell his fear.]

Of course not.

[Sighing heavily, he grabbed Shouichi up in his arms whether he liked it or not, weakly trudging off back toward the bedroom.]

You're going to lie down to rest and you're not going to give me any goddamn trouble. I ache too much to have any patience for this.

I didn't realize they were here... [ And she thinks for a moment before tilting her head slightly. ] Would you like my help?

Listen mister. You're the one who made the broadcast.

I'm Ichigo Kurosaki. A resident of Somarium.

Like hell I'd do something that stupid.

Who is that guy anyways?

Ahh, talking to you makes my head hurt. Calm the hell down.

((It's fine akmflkm xD))

It's the Edennel Apartments. I'll hide [-Interrupted by a fit of coughing-] until you can get here.

But he's really dangerous and ruthless! Be careful.

[Luckily for Byakuran, Shouichi was too weak himself to struggle much, but he did try, squirming to get free and pushing against Byakuran's chest.]

L-Let go of -- [And he was cut off by violent hacking coughs that shook the redhead's whole body.]

P-Please... just don't try anything funny.

And don't attack Byakuran-san!

[Even if he wasn't certain he hadn't... been on this... everyone... everyone could turn on him....]

Who is...? [Pauses, maybe this man didn't know Kikyo at all then? Or maybe he was just playing stupid in elaborate scheme to try and trick him.]

If you were trapped and defenseless and sick with someone you know has tried to kill you, would you be calm?!

No.

[Said once, sharply in response. He laid Shouichi down in bed and went to tuck him in a bit roughly, staring down at him.] Rest. I'll be in the other room if you need anything. Just go to sleep.

[And he's already on his way.]

No worries. I'm sure I've probably dealt with worse.

[The somewhat jerky movements and rough handling had Shouichi cowering in the bed under too tight covers. What did he want with him? He must be holding him hostage... against Byakuran?

But... but...

And then Shouichi's consciousness gave out once more before he could complete the paranoia stricken thought.]

T-Train... please hurry... I don't know who to trust...

[HUFF. Finally. Now that he was finally asleep, he succumbed to his own fatigue, falling to the floor and just sort of... slumping over. Exhausted.]

Wouldn't you be dead by now...? I mean...

I don't want to be rude but...

[Train's quick, so he's arrived by now. Looking around for him now.]

Shouichi?

[And Ichigo, have a nice dizzying view of the video tumbling to the ground, skittering across the floor and then going still and the sound of pounding feet on the ground that fades off. The image shows the ceiling, but at least it isn't spinning anymore?]

(( OOC: If you'd like to continue this we can with Ichigo arriving there and finding him or Ichigo can write him off as crazy for the time being and let it go. Either is fine with me! ))

Man, you're crazy.

Are you sure you're heads in the right place?
